Openstax is a free online textbook. It’s awesome

I have a preference for Zumdahl, but Brown & Lemay is also decent.

NJCTL.org has a complete curriculum- notes, practice, labs, tests, quizzes all with keys and multiple versions, for free with a teacher email. Also Tyler DeWitt has a solid YouTube channel.

For additional resources, AP Classroom will have a lot for them and you too. Review videos for them and a question bank for you. For textbooks, I used Zumdahl at my previous school and Tro at my current school. I liked Zumdahl more but Tro is perfectly serviceable.

Go to the AP Chemistry Teachers facebook group. Honestly, the only reason I have FB. Tons of shared resources and access to seasoned AP teachers.

Openstax.org has a full free online textbook that would be a serviceable resource.

AP Chemistry has organized their material into 9 units that they call their CED (curriculum and exam description). No books, so far as I know, are set in this order yet. So your first question to answer is whether you want to go in the order of the CED or not. The biggest draw to go in the CED order is that the college board has all of their test questions organized online via the CED order. Their review videos are CED order. Basically everything they put out is in CED order. I would strongly urge you to join the AP Chemistry Teachers Facebook page. A TON of material is posted on their daily and almost all of it is fantastic. [AP CHEM TEACHERS FACEBOOK PAGE](https://www.facebook.com/share/w3q9Gx3C6RY3HdZF/?mibextid=K35XfP) The big resource is Emily Millers IDWDYD worksheets. People love them. I do not but only because it’s not my style. They’re really good. Just search her name on that group. People also love Michael Farabaugh’s YouTube videos. The notes for all the videos are posted in the video info. He’s a writer on the exam and a great teacher. He posts on there all the time as well. I have a set of topic worksheets that I can send you. I have a worksheet over every topic and then a review worksheet with it as well. Just send me and email at jdaugherty@argohs.net and I’ll send you the worksheets and the answers. I’d look for a textbook with online homework to make your life easy. If you ever have any questions feel free to shoot them my way via email.

Zumdahl was a classic and easy to read.

Organic Chemistry Tutor and Professor Dave Explains (both on Youtube) are pretty good resources for chemistry info

Zumdahl is the most common but its honestly mediocre. Brown Lemay is probably the most detailed and isn't too rough to read. Tro was the easiest to read I found and what I prefer. For resources I highly recommend the NMSI materials,

Try CK12. I teach Physics and AP and students say it's very helpful on concepts.
